Accident at Sham Battle.


At the sham battle Saturday George

with severe accident. During the last
retreat of the defeated army he received
a shot from the musket of comrade
that blinded him and inflicted an ugly
wound on his fore head. At first it was
thought that his eyesight was destroyed,

receive one half of the gross receipt they

Knox without missing it. and make fol-
him one pleasant memory from thi!

THE YOUNG Widow.

She is modest, but not bashful-
Free and easy, but not bold;
( Like an apple, ripe and mellow
Not too young, and not too old;
Half-inviting, half-repulsing
Now advancing and now shy
There is mischief in her dimple,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature;
She is schooled in all her arts;
She has taken her diploma
+ As the mistress of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile;
Oh, maid is sometimes charming,
But widow all the while
Are you sad? How very serious
Will her handsome face become!
Are you angry She is wretched,
Lonely, friendless, fearful, dumb!
Are you mirthful? How her laughter
Silver-sounding, will ring out!
She can lure, and catch, and play you,
As an angler does the trout.
Ye old bachelors of forty,
Who have grown so bold and wise
Young Americans OF twenty,
With the love-looks in your eyes
You may practice all the lessons
Taught by Cupid since the fall,
But | know a little widow
Who can win and fool you all.

Salisbury Attacks Gladstone.

Primrose league in London, eaid The
hollow agitation carried on during the
Easter holidays by the opposition had
failed, and the governments 8 cause was the

Gladstone's bill of 1881. Under
the latter measure people were imprisoned
without trial. This could not be
done under the present bill. The suppress
sion of crime in Ireland did not mean the
suppression Of liberty. Mr.. Gladstone,
who had spent his life in changing his opin-
ions, mentioned those who had separated
from him in the tone of a father lecturing
his children; but it never occurred to him
that perhaps they had some thing to com
plain OF. They were unable to change
their opinions in a night as he could. Mr..
Gladstone would find it difficult to
gather around him any new recruits.
His present adherents had gone too far to
recede. What had Mr.. Gladstone gained?
He had gained the eighty six very devoted
followers of Mr.. Parnell who had been

fused, him toenter the witness box and
the deny charge. How could Mr.. Gladstone
go before the country associated with men
who refused to submit such question to
the judgement OF an English jury?

1880 was won by food of misrepresen-
tation that could not be repeated. The
conservatives were now an organized party.

Sacredness of Land Patents.

Washington Special: To its degree in the
Maxwell land grant matter the supreme
court appended some general instructions
to lower courts upon the nature and i'm
portance OF a land patent that will do
much to clear away q fog that has surround
ed this instrument. While it affirms en-
phatically the right and jurisdiction OF q
court to investigate and grant relief where
the issue OF patent has been based
upon fraud or mistake. it draws
the attention OF courts to the fact that the
patent is the highest evidence of title as
well against the United States as against
private individual. Its effect upon the
rulings OF the interior department in land
matters, is thus stated by one Of the prin-
cipal law clerks OF the assistant attorney
generals office, whose duty it is to write
to recommend the bringing of suits for the
annulment OF patents:
1t will not change greatly our course of
proceedings here, for this Office has at all
times been exceedingly careful in its recon-
mendations for suits OF this character.
Patents cannot he attacked upon trivial
charges or mere reports by special agents,
and we require the affidavits Of at least
two reputable witnesses to a charge Of
aside a patent. It is true that
the general land office holds that
any technical violation of law con-
stitutes fraud. and insists that the trans
fer of the land on the day OF proving up
shall invalidate title and if discovered aft
erward is ample testimony upon which to
base suit to set aside a patent. This Of
fee does not agree to that, however, and
on no such evidence would it recommend
such suit. This is no reason why suits
to set aside patents held by lumber and
iron companies charged with acquir-
ing land through the settlement of
individuals cannot be success
fully maintained. We are governed
| here entirely by rulings of the supreme
court, and the case OF Myers ve. Croft, in
| which the court held that the transfer of
land upon the very day of final proof, if
the transferee proved up with clean hands,
must convey o title which can never be at
tackled, has been the basis OF our action.
the decision in the Maxwell case will do
| much to enhance the esacredness OF the pat
ent and discourage petty attacks upon I'll
ties which may be open to some technical

Russia's Political Police.
From the st. James's Gazette.

From the st. James's Gazette
That the Russian political police
never forgives is pretty well known.
Here is an illustration. In the year
1880 Stanislaus Jablonowski, the son
of a Polish country gentleman, was
appointed from one of the military
schools at St. Petersburg toia COM
mission IN a guards regiment, and
had leave to visit his home before
Joining. While he was still with his
family the Polish insurrection broke
out and the lad was ordered by his
father to join the insurgents. He did
so, much against his own will las he:
told me, his Russian military educa-
ton having somewhat blunted his
patriot otism; but as his father threaten
ed him with the paternal curse in case.
of disobedience, he threw his lot with
the patriots. When in the following
year the insurrection was extinguish-
ed, young Jablonowski was fortunate
enough to escape through Wallachia
to Turkey, where he entered the regi-
ment of Cossacks of the guards tthen
chiefly composed of Christians Of all
nationalities differed by Poles, the
commander being Gen. Czaykowski
Pasha.) In this regiment he rose
gradually to the rank of adiutant
major; and left the service, infirm and
broken in health, about 1875, obtain
ing small berth of three or four
pounds a month as assistant sur
veyor ofroads in the district of Sliven.
Here he vegetated quietly till 1877,
and unfortunately for himself, elected
to stay in the town of Sliven until
the entry of the Russians; never
dreaming that he would be punished
for having fought against the Russians
forty-seven years previously But
the police section OF the army which
occupied Sliven brought with it seven
photographs Of persons who were
wanted, and among them was
portrait of Jablonowski taken six.
years previously at Adrianople. All
though arrested, he was at first treat
ed very leniently, and invited daily to-
dinner by officers who knew his story;
but a few weeks afterwards orders
were received to convey him to the
Danube headquarters. and be was
sentunder escort with a comrnissariat
transport caravan. At first he was
allowed to sit on q baggage wagon,
from which, after an hour or SO he
